First, let me be clear: Buried Hearts is a thriller, mystery, and crime drama. It’s not a revenge or romance drama, so stop calling it that 😒! The story is led by DongJu and Yeom, but the real surprise is that DongJu, who survived death eight times. He's like a cat with nine lives 🐈!

What I Loved:
- No romance! That made the show even better for me. I love it when thrillers and mysteries stay focused without adding love stories.
- The acting was amazing, and I liked almost all the characters.
- The plot felt a little fresh, though it did have some typical Kdrama elements.

What Went Wrong:
- The 16 episodes felt too long. Some parts of the story seemed unnecessary, as if they were added just to fill time.
- The story dragged, repeating the same things and having episodes that felt boring with no real action.
- The only good mystery was finding out about DongJu's father, but many people had already guessed it. There wasn’t much else that felt mysterious.
- There were a few exciting scenes, but nothing special.
- Eunnam’s character was dull, and even the housekeepers had more interesting parts.
- Tayeung ended up as “ramen boy” with no depth to his story. It would have been nice to see him have a rivalry with the other guy his age.
- DongJu and Yeom’s fights kept repeating, without anyone really winning.

The Ending:

I enjoyed the drama and everything it brought to the table, so don’t get me wrong. However, I had hoped for deeper exploration of its genres. And let me emphasize again, it’s not a revenge or romance drama! The ending felt overly rushed and lacked a solid storyline. Honestly, if this was the intended conclusion, the show would have been better as a 12-episode series.
